Planning a visit to Angola? Stay informed with essential health guidelines for a worry-free trip. Here's what travelers should know.

Make sure to stay updated on routine vaccines

  • Keep updated with Angola's COVID-19 requirements, such as quarantine, testing, or vaccine certificates, through your airline or the Angolan government website.

  • Vaccinations for diseases like yellow fever are mandatory for entry into Angola. Check the site of the World Health Organization (WHO) for specific vaccination policies.

  • Depending on travel plans, vaccines for hepatitis A and B, typhoid, and malaria prophylaxis might be needed. Consult the CDC's Travelers' Health page for recommendations.

Medical facilities

  • Urban areas like Luanda have hospitals and clinics that offer various services, but facilities may not meet the standards found in high-income countries.

  • In rural and remote areas, medical facilities are limited, and access to emergency care can be challenging.
